What Is the 170XTS00900 Terminal Connector Kit?

When industrial automation systems demand secure and dependable electrical connections, the Schneider 170XTS00900 terminal connector kit delivers a compact solution. Part of the Modicon Momentum series, this kit includes one SUB-D 9 male connector and one SUB-D 9 female connector, designed for remote bus cable applications. Its lightweight design—weighing only 54 grams—simplifies handling during installation.

Technical Specifications Breakdown

This connector kit operates reliably within a wide environmental range. It supports a maximum ambient temperature of 60 degrees Celsius and a minimum ambient temperature of 0 degrees Celsius, making it suitable for many industrial environments. The unit tolerates up to 95% non-condensing humidity in both operation and storage, and functions effectively at altitudes up to 1000 meters above sea level. Natural cooling maintains performance without additional fans. The kit measures 1.18 inches in height, 3.94 inches in width, and 5.43 inches in length, fitting neatly into control panels.

Industry Applications

In manufacturing facilities, the 170XTS00900 connects remote bus cables to Modicon Quantum and Modicon Premium automation platforms. It also serves in process control systems where reliable signal transmission is critical. The compact form factor allows installation in space-constrained cabinets, while the CE compliance ensures adherence to European safety standards.

Installation & Setup Guidance

Mount the 170XTS00900 securely using the provided connectors. Verify that the remote bus cable matches the kit's SUB-D 9 interface. Ensure ambient temperature stays between 0 and 60 degrees Celsius and humidity remains below 95% non-condensing. For altitude installations above 1000 meters, consult the manufacturer's guidelines. Always follow standard industrial wiring practices to maintain signal integrity.

Maintenance & Reliability

Routine inspection of the connector contacts and cable terminations helps prevent signal degradation. The natural cooling design requires no active maintenance, but keep the area around the kit free of dust and debris. Verify that operating conditions—temperature, humidity, and altitude—stay within specified limits to maximize service life. Periodic checks of the connection tightness can reduce downtime.

Compatibility & Integration

The 170XTS00900 is designed for use with the Modicon Momentum series and is compatible with Modicon Quantum and Modicon Premium automation platforms. It functions as an Interbus 9-way connector kit for remote bus cable connections. This integration capability makes it a versatile choice for mixed-platform environments.
